Osteopathy Awareness Workshop: Intro to Osteo

This amazing FREE workshop is a must for all people interested in health and their body. Dr Miranda and Dr Drew will explain exactly what Osteopath is and how it is a highly regulated and holistic form of alternative health care. They'll be taking some time to discuss what exactly this means and the philosophies Osteopathy is built upon, including how the body holds its own self-regulating (healing) mechanism; and how sometimes all it needs is a little nudge in the right direction. They'll explain the differences between direct and indirect techniques and how osteopaths can help with much more than just hands-on treatment, by encompassing aspects of your whole life – such as;
• nutritional advice
• movement therapy
• ergonomic modifications – at home or at work
• ways of coping through pain
• + much more Movement Therapy you can do at home or at work!

Here you will be welcomed to partake in a form of movement therapy. We will show you ways you can keep the smaller joints of the body in motion, to then decrease tension and/or pain felt in larger areas – the ones doing all the work.
